Read more →Black River is estate country — large villas inside managed schemes, frequently owned from abroad and let when the owners are not there.

Estates here have standards for external works, plant noise and contractor access, and a managing agent who will be looking after the property long after we leave. We submit properly and we write the operating manual for the agent rather than for an engineer.
The suite has to work unattended: humidistat extract, a written shutdown and restart routine, a caretaker checklist in plain language, and remote temperature and leak alarms where the owner wants them.
We also leave a spares kit with part numbers, because a shipment to this island takes weeks and a rental guest will not wait.
These villas change hands. An operating manual, a service history and a spares list demonstrably add more at resale than the equivalent spend on finishes, and we hand all three over at completion.
Usually your managing agent, so we write the manual for them and train them at handover.
In our experience yes, particularly with the service history. A buyer can see it has been looked after.
